There are 2 brothers who play local tournaments in my area who are quite good (top-level club players) and both dress like Federer and look very much like Federer out on the court. They have the same service motion, one-handed backhand motion, etc. It is actually quite fun to watch :)


btw have you seen Amer Delic playing? he really looks like Roger

Never underestimate the pain of a person, because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it than others.

"Dear Fans,

I've unfortunately decided to pull out of The Gerry Weber Open in Halle, Germany. I am very disappointed as its one of my absolute favorite tournaments on the ATP Tour, but my body, especially my groin, really needs a rest."


I wonder if he's going to regret not just saying "injury?" :lol:

Halle were not happy, didn't he sign a deal to play their long term last year. Apart from Roger the big names all play Queens.

Yeah Mahut should receive one. Would be something if he had to face Isner again...

I hope Arantxa Rus gets one too.

the king of grass doesn't need to play too manymatches on grass to aclimatize to the surface just like rafa on clay. of course the director will be pissed Roger is the main attraction and yes fed signed a lifetime contract with halle. Hey does anyone think roger will match connor's 169 wins on grass.

Not me. He still needs 73 more. Winning Wimbledon this year and then winning Halle and Wimbledon every year it would take him 6 more years.

I wish grass season longer. People talk about how roger can be considered goat with rafa, owning him, but if the grass court season was longer I'm fairly certain roger would've got a lot more wins against him, and if stays in current for he would beat rafa on grass right now.
